OWNED IN: 9% of leagues
BALLER MOVE: Target ~195
CURRENT ADP: ~210
ANALYSIS: Even though Darren Sproles remains the most reliable back in the Philadelphia RB stable, Smallwood’s meager ownership share compared to LeGarrette Blount’s 85 percent is a bit odd.
While it seems logical that Blount would be the go-to guy after being a beast in New England, he hasn’t done enough to force Doug Pederson to name a lead back and even saw rumors fly of the Eagles looking to upgrade at the position just a week ago.
Neither Smallwood nor Blount will be a reliable option when sharing reps, but the 23-year-old West Virginia product could take the short-yardage job. As one of the last players on your roster, he could be a sneaky stash.
